Landscape Design + Build · Dripping Springs, TX

Landscape design for Hill Country ranches.

Dripping Springs is real Hill Country — bigger lots, native meadows, well water, ranch architecture. We design landscapes that fit the place: native, naturalistic, low water, built for the long view.

What works in Dripping Springs

What we know about working in Dripping Springs.

Lots are large. Multi-acre parcels are common. The design shifts from ‘yard’ to ‘landscape’ — meadows, allées of live oaks, naturalistic plantings at scale.

Most Dripping Springs homes are on well water. That changes everything. Native, drought-tolerant plantings aren’t a preference — they’re a requirement. We design for under-an-inch-of-rain summers.

Architecture is often ranch or modern-ranch. Materials want to be local — Texas limestone, weathered cedar, native pecan, stamped concrete done well. The landscape echoes the architecture.

Our process

What working with us looks like.

Step 01

Site visit

We walk the property, talk through use, check drainage and sun, and leave with a fixed-fee design proposal — usually within a week.

Step 02

Master plan

2D plan view, material palette, native plant list, phased budget. You see it before we touch a shovel. Design fee credits 100% toward the build.

Step 03

Build

Our crew, not subs. We handle hardscape, planting, irrigation, lighting end-to-end. Most projects finish in 4–10 weeks.

Step 04

Year-one care

Walk-throughs at 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months. Anything that doesn’t establish, we replace. 5-year warranty on hardscape.
